My buddy called and invited me to join him and some other friends for a pheasant hunt over his pointer today. When we met it was 29 degrees with a 20-25 mph wind. But I was prepared and his sweet little doggie didn't seem to mind. This hunt was on a private preserve and we had 10 birds to hunt.

The windy conditions seemed to spook the birds who just wanted to run but we managed to have a fun day. We got eight of them pointed up and into the air and popped seven. Two birds just took off in to the woods where we could not find them. They will soon become fodder for the hawks and yotes. I've got a pair of birds to clean and a future excellent meal.

My biggest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my guns and fishing rods for what I told her I paid for them.
